SQL query with join

Hi,

   You can include 'NO Liability' also in the IN clause because you are checking with OR condition with the same column.

This is simple brackets magic.

What are your requirements. If we know that refactoring the query will be easy

Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
Is it possible for you to restructure the query.I am not very good in sql.

Many Thanks

Assume there will be more joins required.

Select *  From Personal_Details  
Where  
((Personal_Details.CURRStatus in ('Active','PreservedPensioner','Pensioner','Widow','Child','No Liability'))
and  (Personal_Details .Dateleft > dateadd(y,9-20-2011,-1)))
or DEATHBENEFIT Dbdate > dateadd(y,9-20-2011,-1)
or PENSIONER_DETAIL.Pdpencomm  > dateadd(y,9-20-2011,-1)
or TRANSFER_OUT_HISTORY > dateadd(y,9-20-2011,-1)

Join to what?  Please rephrase your question so that we know what you are trying to accomplish.

Also, when you combine "or" and "and" in the where clause, please use parenthesis to explicitly express the order of operations.

A "join" is a way to combine rows from two tables.  While you can join a table to itself, I don't think that is what you have in mind.  For us to illustrate a join, we need to know what other tables are involved and what columns form the relationship between them.

Here's an example of joining PersonalDetails to (hypothetical) Employee:


Select PersonalDetails.*, Employee.Name
From Personal_Details  
inner join Employee on Personal_Details.EmployeeID = Employee.EmployeeID

I dont think you require a join statement here as you are referring only to one table.

you can just combine CURRStatus in one instead of an "OR"

Select *  From Personal_Details  
Where  
((Personal_Details.CURRStatus in ('Active','PreservedPensioner','Pensioner','Widow','Child','No Liability'))
and  (Personal_Details .Dateleft > dateadd(y,9-20-2011,-1)))
or DEATHBENEFIT Dbdate > dateadd(y,9-20-2011,-1)
or PENSIONER_DETAIL.Pdpencomm  > dateadd(y,9-20-2011,-1)
or TRANSFER_OUT_HISTORY > dateadd(y,9-20-2011,-1)

Hi,
THanks for the reply.
But here I am referring to 4 tables


Select *  From Personal_Details 'table Personal_Details
Where  
((Personal_Details.CURRStatus in ('Active','PreservedPensioner','Pensioner','Widow','Child','No Liability'))
and  (Personal_Details .Dateleft > dateadd(y,9-20-2011,-1)))
or DEATHBENEFIT Dbdate > dateadd(y,9-20-2011,-1) 'table DEATHBENEFIT
or PENSIONER_DETAIL.Pdpencomm  > dateadd(y,9-20-2011,-1)' table PENSIONER_DETAIL
or TRANSFER_OUT_HISTORY > dateadd(y,9-20-2011,-1) 'table TRANSFER_OUT_HISTORY

Cheers

Cheers mates!!
